Had to wait 20 minutes with our reservation and then only got the table for 100 minutes because of other reservations. With the length of time for service even at the table, we never got beyond appetizers and had to finish our last drink at the bar.

This is one of our favourite Mexican restaurants in Toronto. Whether you’re looking for a great drinks or authentic Mexican food, you will not be disappointed. We highly recommend their bacon wraps dates, corn, fries, guacamole bar, and their tacos. All of their drinks are fantastic. Their service is really good too.

Friday night last minute dinner after our favourite taco place was full. Surprisingly cozy with some delicious drinks. Started with the guacamole. Fresh and nicely presented with queso on the side. The octopus with potatoes was also delicious. The chicken taco while nicely assembled was cold. Excellent service. Looking forward to margs on the patio in the summer.

Great dinner, everything was delicious! The margaritas were made to perfection. Tony(I think that’s his name) was friendly, fun, courteous and gave great recommendations. Definitely get the tres leche cake! The place is nice, quaint and cozy. It was not noisy and perfect atmosphere to talk and catch up with friends. Will definitely come again!

Great food and ambience, the server was super helpful. There was one extra loud diner that took over the space, but otherwise we had a fantastic night out. Cocktails were delicious, too!

Beautiful bar and great place for a drink. Cocktails were delicious and inventive. However the food portions were very small for the price point, almost laughably. service was friendly but clearly not used to larger groups (food coming out at uneven times, unsure of orders etc) and came across very new or unsure of themselves, easily flustered and not reading the room. We’d be happy to come back for a drink but we won’t be eating here - a Mexican place that runs out of guac on a quiet night (there were only 3 other tables full) is a not a great start for a meal.

Explained at the outset that one of the party had an intolerance to avocado and reminded the wait staff an 2 other occasions. Both taco orders came with avocado. Also The Steak tacos - you needed a microscope to find the steak and when you did come across a piece it was mostly tough gristle. Overall food was mediocre and surprising given the positive reviews. Would never go back.
